THE READ LIST: currently vintage

DO you like to shop #SECONDHANDFIRST but need a little help in the tip department? The following is a list of some quick reads from people in the know. And THANKS to these awesome links, now, you do too.

Updated, not Sedated. Keeping your #VINTAGE current:

If you love vintage fashion but don't want to look like you got stuck in time warp, you need to read THIS, stat.

This colorful beauty doesn't exactly dole out advice on how to look amazing in vintage or dress like a fabulous fashion bad-ass, she merely shares by example. (Edit: Spoiler! Her blog rhymes with Fab and a Hurray)

If you're looking for some sage advice for shopping vintage, check out this list of six must know tips. Even How Stuff Works weighs in with their own words of advice to-dos and ta-dahs when going thrifting. Modcloth offers up its own version of vintage clothing tips, in a fuel of poesy powered bombast, done up nicely in a free-ranged iambic pentameter.

Edit: The marvelously marvelous Suzanne did a great post of shopping tips for vintage- a definite MUST READ! In fact her blog is a must read for Secondhand Firsters, AND fabulous +40 women alike.

There is a whole post on how to shop estate sales, one on thrift store and another on vintage stores as well as tips how to style the clothes and examples from a bunch of bloggers...you're there too Missy! ; P

Suzanne: THANK YOU for tooting your own horn. Your post is fantastic and I've already added it to yesterday's post. In fact your blog is great- wonderful style and great way to showcase how awesome you can look when you shop #secondhandfirst. You da best, baby. -bella Q
